New Israeli step angers Somalia and threatens to deepen the rift

Israel ·

Somalia has voiced its objection to Israeli moves in the region of Somaliland, rejecting the accreditation of an Israeli ambassador to the territory's authorities. It also opposes the laying of the foundation stone for an Israeli embassy building in Hargeisa.

Somaliland declared independence from Somalia in 1991 but has not gained wide international recognition, and Mogadishu regards it as part of Somalia.
